Top 15 Things To Do?..

Found a top 15 things to do in Carleton Place list on the Trip Advisor web site and thought about the top 15 things to do in Carleton Place. The list is pretty extensive, but misses taking in some of the beauty that is Carleton Place.

So now let’s set out to compile a new list, one that is created by someone who actually lives in Carleton Place. Of course, off the top of my head I can’t think of what the top 15 things are to do but definitely number one on the list has to be to take in the beautiful scenery.

Carleton Place is situated on the banks of the Mississippi River and has numerous walking trails and parks. Without a doubt, enjoying a walk in Carleton Place has to top the list of things to do.

Take a walk through Riverside Park. Take a peek at what you are missing if you haven’t already taken a stroll through the park. Check out our Riverside Park videos

Take a wander around the area with the Town Hall as a back drop. Check out our Town Hall videos

Take a walk along the new Ottawa Valley Recreational Trail (OVRT). The trail runs right through Carleton Place and offers some breath taking views along the way. We have a page dedicated to the OVRT.
